Raising Hare by Chloe Dalton

The magical true story of a woman and an injured hare who taught her how to live again - the perfect Christmas gift for 2024 and an instant Sunday Times bestseller
Already tipped by the Bookseller as "a future classic of nature writing", Raising Hare is one of the most gorgeous tales of human-animal connection out there * * iNews * *
Raising Hare is a glorious book - for its warmth, its precision, its joyIt's not dreamy or romantic about the natural world - it's something far better than that -- KATHERINE RUNDELL
I savoured every carefully chosen and perfectly polished word and I cared so deeply about Hare that I found myself holding my breath . . . This is more than a wildlife memoir, it's a philosophical masterpiece ruminating on our place as human beings in nature -- CLARE BALDING
Raising Hare is an astounding achievement. Not since I read Salar the Salmon by Henry Williamson have I witnessed such insight into a creature of the wild. This is a great and important tale for our times, for all of us, in the same league as Ted Hughes, Alice Oswald, Thomas Hardy and indeed Henry Williamson himself. I am so pleased Chloe Dalton told us about raising hare. I will not forget it and nor will anyone who reads it -- MICHAEL MORPURGO
This book is exceptional. It made me smile out loud, such a magical tale of a world turned upside down by a fragile wild thing - a leveret lost, a life found. A simply wonderful story, profoundly beautiful -- CHRIS PACKHAM
Written with tenderness and lyricism from someone who has taken the time to reconnect to nature and the wild within. A beautiful book -- ANGELINA JOLIE
A beautiful book that makes you think profoundly about how we so often tune out the natural world around us. Chloe Dalton is a tender, curious, wise, mind-expanding guide, connecting readers with the wild we humans once knew so well. I will be recommending this to everyone -- MATT HAIG
A captivating and uplifting story about a chance encounter that proved utterly transformative. Beautifully written, touching and thought-provoking. It's stayed with me weeks after finishing the final sentence -- CATHY NEWMAN
Utterly bewitched by this marvel of nature writing by Chloe Dalton with glorious illustrations by Denise Nestor -- CAROLINE SANDERSON
A moving, magical blend of memoir and nature writing . . . beautifully written, with a luminous, fairytale quality -- JOHN O'CONNELL
